My Macbook Pro is crashing, freezing, and hanging due to a bug reported as "remove stuck pageflip" by syslog. I believe.

The setup: 

Macbook Pro A5102
OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Memory: 7.7GiB
Processor: Intel Core i5-5257u CPU @ 2.7GHz x 4
Graphics: Intel Iris 6100 (Broadwell GT3)
Os type: 64-bit
Disk: 37.0GB
uname -a: Linux caleb-ubuntu 4.4.0-43-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 12 13:48:03 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
uname -r: 4.4.0-43-generic

The machine will freeze with screen content still visible, cursor still responsive and reacting to screen elements, but nothing clickable or able to be interacted with. I then must ctrl+alt+f1 until entering prompt, usually takes ~2 minutes. Then I can ctrl+alt+f7 to return to my work.

Other times, the screen will "glitch out" and I must follow the above steps, waiting a longer period of time.

Other times, the system will totally freeze, and I must force reboot.

  • Is your MacBook getting hot? What type of connection on the second monitor? Also I'd leave a terminal open running the command top on the second monitor and see if anything spikes when it freezes.

  • I will monitor heat, though I didn't specifically notice that previously. Is there a way to be logging "top" somehow? The event is so rare I'd have to have the terminal open on every desktop, which would be a bit annoying as I am constantly flipping around desktops and am a bit of a screen real estate nazi :P

  • you could try updated intel driver. may be they fixed what seems to be a bug. 01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads or you can try that PPA launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers with also updated intel driver. Chooose one not both.

  • @solsTiCe That was a good idea but unfortunately it just hung again after updating the driver. Lots of things are rendering a lot better now, so good tip either way!

    I added to my grub options: intel_idle.max_cstate=1 If it works for you you can add it to /etc/default/grub, in the line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_idle.max_cstate=1" I still getting the error but it is not flickering nor freezing by now (but I still seeing the error). If it works for you let me know so get can get "closer" to a workaround.

Let's see if it works!

  • For others - make sure to edit grub with sudo such like sudo gedit grub so your changes save.

  • This is the closest we're going to get and the bounty expires in an hour. Great link! I hadn't thought to check the kernel bugzilla.

  • Thanks! But anyway, keep me posted and let's see if we keep having errors. Together we might find faster and better workarounds or fixes than on our own. If you experience a new freeze or any other related thingie, just let me know and we'll try to figure out what to do

If the kernel gets into a High load problem like running an endless loop of creating random Mac address's or some other process.

I have seen the Top average load indicator go/driven as high as 80-85 then the system kernel goes into some sort of recovery mode Blanking the screen.

I think its called the "Bash infinite Loop of death".

Log the Top command to a TXT file top >> top.txt then you may find a bit more info out, the log output is not really that good formatted maybe someone else could Help with that.

As a precaution I would change all of you passwords just in case do it disconnected from any network.
